Greetings, dear readers!
The Witcher series, created by American and Polish filmmakers in several genres at once - horror, fantasy, action, drama, detective and adventure, premiered on December 20, 2019. It can also be found on the Internet on sites that provide online movie viewing services.
The plot is based on a series of computer games about the Witcher. It, in turn, was created based on the books of the Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski.
Most of all, fans of the games were waiting for the release of this series on the wide screen, which, judging by the responses they left on different sites, were very disappointed.
Fortunately for me, I was not familiar with these games, or even with the works of the writer that formed the basis of the series. That's why, I think, I can judge with an open mind how this series turned out.
And it, I must say, turned out to be wonderful, with an interesting twisted, intriguing plot, which at first may not seem quite clear, since it simultaneously develops three seemingly completely unrelated storylines, but if you look closely at this film, then from series to series, individual puzzles of the mosaic begin to develop and create a quite logical picture of what is happening. You just don't have to stop watching the show after the second or third series, but continue to watch it until the end. Patient viewers will eventually be rewarded.
Starring Henry Cavill, Freya Allan, Mimi Diveni, Eamonn Farren, Mayanna Bering, Wilson Raju-Puhalte and other actors. I have almost no complaints about their game. Except that the heroine of Freya Allan-Princess Ciri periodically looks not quite natural. But the Witcher, traveling around the world and ridding the locals of all evil spirits, with his faithful horse Roach and Buttercup are a very colorful group. The song of Buttercup in General became the hallmark of the series.
It was very interesting to watch how the appearance and character of Yennefer changed, transformed in a relatively short time from a downtrodden, useless, ugly girl to a beautiful, arrogant, despising everyone and everything, a sorceress who knows her own worth and achieves everything she wants.
As for the story itself, it develops quite dynamically and consistently, despite the fact that we are constantly being moved from one storyline to another. Here we will meet with wizards and wizards, and with all sorts of evil spirits, even with a dragon. In the series, the battle scenes are not bad, there are many scenes of a magical nature.
I advise you to watch the series for all fans of fantasy, action and adventure. Horror fans are likely to be disappointed. There are almost no scenes with this genre in this series, except in the final battle of the season. There's a lot to see!
On my own, I want to add that thanks to this film, I wanted to find the writer's books that created the games and this series, and read them, and it's worth a lot.
The first season consists of eight hour-long episodes. There is no exact release date for the second season yet. It is only known that its premiere will take place next year. In General, it is planned to create seven or eight seasons. Will wait...
Pleasant to you of viewing!
Thank you for your attention, see you soon!
With respect to you, @mrfantastis.
